Payroll account info banner

I also am having this issue, on Quickbooks Enterprise 2020 Desktop.

There is no Payroll Account Info banner. 

I believe, if anything, we're missing the Business Type information, but I can't find where to enter this in.

I have spent several hours on chat being passed from one QB support team to another (after almost an hour of waiting in the queue) - each one stating I needed to speak with another support group.  And still have been unable to get added to a list of affected users even though I've provided the investigation number that was given at the beginning of this thread.  What is the correct support group to contact and can you provide a direct link?

I had the same issue!  If you go to your Payroll Center, you will find on the left hand side a few items.  One will be marked (1), which I realized meant that our system blocked the upload.  Enable that & then you can fill out the necessary information for the new direct deposit payroll info!

IT123 - Thank you for posting the solution.  I was already updated, but could find no banner, and logging into my Intuit Account had none of the information needed for the direct deposit requirements....   But, I did have the button you describe!  Screenshot attached for others in case it helps.  It was on the screen the whole time I was looking for a banner - but I always ignore the advertisements in the left column so was blind to it LOL.

KarlMontana - thanks for the screenshot.  Unfortunately mine doesn't look the same.  I just have links to PPP Reports under the QuickBooks Capital ad.

You're welcome... but sorry to hear and see that yours doesn't have the button. :-( 

 

I wonder if we're on the same build/release of QB Desktop.   I'm running 2021, and when I press ctrl-1 to see the Product Information screen and scroll to the bottom of "Versions Used on File", it shows V31.0D R6 05/22/21 as the current running update.

Same for me. Maybe that means we are up to date on our info?

I was on Quickbooks 2020 so I updated to QB2021 thinking that might be the problem.  Unfortunately that didn't help.  I show the same version as KarlMontana however I still don't have the "Update Your Payroll Account" button.

I just ended a phone call to QB Desktop for Mac Support and was told the reason I don't have a banner or button to update my payroll info is because there is no missing information.  So let's hope she's right!

How crazy is it that Intuit asks us to update an area that doesn't exist?  Anyway, just finished a chat with a rep who provided a workaround.  This link takes you to a form and instructions. The letter mentioned in the instructions is not required; the photo ID is required.

I hope this is not the workaround. I have 50+ companies that I need to update and none of them have the banner.

Wow mhpkap!  I just uploaded the form and info.  Tip to users who decide to go this route:  Inform the Intuit assistor that you have a completed form that you want to upload.  I stated that I wanted to submit the form, and the assistor provided the link to obtain the form.  Second, you will need to enter a PIN after the assistor gives you the link for the upload.  This is not your payroll PIN; the assistor has to provide one to you.

My primary principal is not changing. We should not all have to fill out a form and submit photo. They need to let us know what to do on our software. I'm not sitting around for hours dealing with support. If something has to be done for direct deposit, Quickbooks needs to let us know without having to go through support. I'm not doing anything till they let me know. I feel like that should be a requirement.

I'm with you. I've wasted hours with QuickBooks support and still no way to accomplish what their email is asking us to do. It's ridiculous!

I know that this hasn't been easy for you, @Nick0222, and @leftbrain.


That is not what we want you to experience. I can share some information about this issue.

 

Currently, a new investigation has been open about updating direct deposit information and missing banner. In the meantime, I'd suggest reaching out to our Support Team. They can pull up your account and add you to the list of affected users. You can follow the steps provided by my colleague Angelyn_T to reach them.

 

As a workaround, you can try the steps suggested by cheryl0322. Since it works on her end and maybe this could works on yours as well.

 

For your reference, you can check this resource to learn more about the need to update the direct deposit account info: Understand why you need to update your account info for payroll.

I too am still having problems.

 

Way to go Quickbooks, requiring companies to do something that you give them no help/support in accomplishing that.  This is exactly why businesses fail.
